I am seriously considering a taking a little road trip with my sister for this event. 4.5 hours one way! If we make it down there, I'll be crossing my fingers for some black spanish turkey poults. I'm still interested in other breeds, though! Also, if anyone has male sexlink chicks they don't know what to do with, I'll be looking for 10+ any large fowl breed. wee.gif

Hello from Southeast PA!!!

 

If after your Clarion meet-up any of you are still looking to buy and/or sell, there will a GREAT poultry auction going on in Lancaster County, PA on Saturday, May 12th starting at 10:00am.  The location is at the Green Dragon Small Animal Auction at 955 North State Street  Ephrata, PA 17522.

 

Anyone can call me at 610-763-9804 or email me at wyandotte86@gmail.com for more info or for a copy of our flyer for the auction.

 

Many of you seem interested in buying call ducks and sebastopol goslings...both of which I know will be at this sale, plus hordes of other ornamental bantams, large fowl, waterfowl, pheasants, turkeys, cage birds (parrots, finches, lovebirds, canaries, etc.), peafowl, chicks, and much more.  We also sell cages, wire, and pet supplies.

 

If you are looking to sell, we will start accepting at 6:00 am that day.  Please keep in mind that any poultry to be sold at auction that is from outside PA, necessary AI paperwork would be needed.  Also, all carriers/cages will go along with the animals when sold, so if you want to keep your carriers, just bring the birds in carboard boxes with plenty of air holes and/or wire sides for easy viewing.

 

Hope some of you Western PA folks can make it!!!

 

Keith

I have been desperately searching for a couple true Ameraucanas for months now. Unfortunately I can't have any boys but does anyone have any sexed chicks, juveniles, pullets or hens?

I would certainly make the trip there to grab a few. My father in law is also looking for Easter Eggers since our feed store in Butler won't be receiving any he had planned on.

Just spoke with the PA Vet Dr. Martin. She said that if we are going to have the chickenstock that we should remind everyone that NPIP can only buy from other NPIP people and everyone should quarantine their new birds for 30 days. She also said that no birds should be out of cages, that they should stay with their poop. We don't want to bring poop back on our shoes to our established flocks. I will be bringing hand sanitizer and paper towels for hands. I'll also make signs to remind everyone of the NPIP and quarantine.

I believe someone is bringing True Ameraucanas in several colors to the chickenstock. They posted on the Facebook group.
